How do you want to build quality?Test management that speaks GherkinBring your Playwright runs home

Classic TestQuality test management, or Levr, our newest platform built for teams working with AI coding agents.

Keep your scenarios, run them, and link every one to the story it proves. Or stay with classic TestQuality.

Results, flaky tests and failures next to the issues they belong to. Or stay with classic TestQuality.

LevrFree forever

Recommended for BDD teams

Recommended for Playwright teams

New from the team that brought you TestQuality

Issues, agentic testing and a project control plane for your agents. All in one.

For teams building with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other coding agents.

  • Issues & projects for humans and agents. Epics, stories, cycles and triage that your team and your coding agents both read and update.
  • Agentic testing, built in. Agents write tests against acceptance criteria, run them and record results, in the same graph as the issues.
  • The control plane for your agents. Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or any MCP client. Manual, semi or fully autonomous, with gates that hold and every action attributed.
  • A real Gherkin editor. Syntax highlighting, autocomplete, formatting, and one-click Enhance with AI.
  • Steps or Gherkin, per test. Switch views without losing work: Backgrounds become preconditions, Examples become datasets.
  • .feature files and Cucumber results. Import .feature files as your automated-test inventory, and push Cucumber JSON from CI as a run.
  • Tests linked to the work. Link each scenario to the story it verifies, and let agents write tests over MCP.
  • One command from CI. npx @levr-one/cli push results.xml takes JUnit or CTRF straight from Playwright’s built-in reporters.
  • Flaky tests, flagged. A retry that passes counts as flaky, with a Flaky filter on every run.
  • Failures with evidence. Screenshots and traces attach to the failing result.
  • Results next to the work. Link a failing test to an issue on the same board, and let agents work it over MCP.
